00:00One day Nasruddin's donkey went missing. The people of the village found him wandering on

00:06the streets, joyfully shouting, thank God, praise be to the Almighty. So they wondered,

00:11Mulla, why are you so happy? You have lost your donkey. Nasruddin said, yes, but I wasn't on

00:17it when it got lost. We will say, what a fool, what a fool. There's a deeper reason here.

00:22Donkeys will get lost. Donkeys come and donkeys go. Everything in life is a transient donkey.

00:31They come, they stay, they go. Suffering is when there is such a huge association between you and

00:39that object, that when the object leaves, it tears you apart and carries you along with itself. Things

00:48will leave. You stay your place. That is Mulla's message. And then you can remain happy.
